I'm not ok with it. I'm not ok with Boutique owners not paying themselves. It's just unacceptable. You started this business because you love it- now it's time to decide why you haven't paid yourself (more) yet!

The first in a 3 part series, I'm diving into WHY you aren't paying yourself (or not paying yourself more!).

1. You don't believe you deserve to get paid for your work in your store.

2. You don't see other boutique owners paying themselves.

3. You say "I can't afford it."

I'd love to hear from you at [email protected] with an email titled "I've decided to pay myself." or "Paying myself is a non-negotiable."
